I remember Runciman saying something along the lines of "Charles had his army and fleet ready to be set on Constantinople, but Michael had his friends"

As I recall, he said, "Had the Angevin expedition come to fruition, there would have been little chance of the survival of Michael Palaeologos' empire. But Byzantine diplomacy was the best in the world."

Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things also who is your favourite Muslim leader or rival to the Byzantine empire? For me it's probably Mohammed Al Fatih aka mehmed II as he completed the prophecy of prophet Muhammad and conquered Constantinople
